Which version are you using?
gmpuran commentedon Sep 13, 2014
Hi pypingou,
pygit2 - v0.21.2
libgit2 - v0.21.0

It looks to be down to us not overriding the default checkout strategy, which is a no-op.

Or rather, by not initializing with libgit2's defaults, which makes it checkout by default.
Properly initialize the clone options

FTR the repository isn't empty, just its worktree.
